WHEN I LIE

Lyrics: Elsbeth Rehder/Ola Frøyen Music: Elsbeth Rehder/Ola Frøyen Do my makeup in the pieces of a thousand mirrors 7000 years of bad luck covered with the glitter I put on my face to look like I’m a little better Then the person I’ve become, the person I’ve become Fill my veins with things that make me look a little thinner Order everything I want cus Imma purge it later I do purchases with purposes regret it, hate it And I long, for some’ to make me numb Need some intervention or some revelation to make me behave, can I even be saved Cus I’ve got these problems that I never talk about, I never talk about Think I’m recovered, but they will discover the things i have covered, don’t wanna uncover All of the things that I don’t wanna talk about, don’t wanna talk about I, live so comfortable with my lies Cards to my chest, hold them close til’ I die I’m myself with my mask, don’t even know who I am without it If noone don’t ask, why should I even bother with Life is so comfortable when I lie I’ve mastered everything that has to do with the art of disguise Concealed the things I think will make you think that I’m not that nice Should win an oscar for the best performance, without a doubt I’ve planned my speech already for years “Dear mom and daddy and all of my family, I thank you for being here, way you believed in me. I never thought that I would come this far Wipe off the tears I’ve been faking for years as I smile to the camera, It’s just a matter of time before I get a Hollywood boulevard star Cus I, live so comfortable with my lies Cards to my chest, hold them close til’ I die Cus I’m myself with my mask, don’t even know who I am without it If noone don’t ask, why should I even bother with Life is so comfortable when I lie
